The Story Behind - Surreal Stripes

In recent years, life has felt a little warped, leaving us yearning for something that could spark a smile. A touch of whimsy to brighten our everyday routines. Amidst the absurdity and uncertainty, we’ve found ourselves craving moments of lightness and optimism. It’s no wonder then, that surrealism is making a powerful comeback in design. By merging the absurd with our reality, it delivers an unexpected dose of joy and wonder, inviting us to embrace spontaneity and explore the unusual.

Inspired by Maison et Objet’s Sur/Reality theme, our Surreal Stripes Collection is designed to create just that. Moments of surprise and delight. Our wall murals play with scale, proportion, and color to blur the line between the real and the imaginary, transforming any room into an artistic escape. In this collection, stripes take on a new life, twisting, bending, and curving in fantastical ways that challenge the ordinary and invite curiosity.

Collection 

There’s something undeniably captivating about stripes. Whether bold and dramatic or delicate and whispery, they have an uncanny ability to transform any space they touch. But why do we love them so much? What is it about stripes that continues to captivate us, century after century? Part of their charm lies in their timelessness. Stripes are true classics.

In this collection, we’ve brought together our existing striped wall murals while also introducing new colors for Striped Archway and Vibrant Veneer. Striped Archway is bold and structured, like a gateway into another realm, while Vibrant Veneer offers an organic, nature-inspired feel with a calming blue. The idea behind Surreal Stripes is to elevate the concept of surrealism and stripes, creating spaces that go beyond the ordinary.

What excites us most is how stripes can be reimagined and reinvented. By adding a gradient or even continuing the pattern onto the ceiling, you create a cohesive, enveloping atmosphere that feels both artistic and immersive. For those who dare to be even bolder, our Striped Meadow is a wall mural intertwined with vibrant florals for that unmistakable maximalist flair. We’re also obsessed with combining stripes with other patterns throughout the home.

 

 

Why Surrealism?

Surrealism was born from a desire to free the unconscious mind, blending the ordinary with the fantastical to challenge convention and celebrate spontaneity. It encourages us to question reality, embrace our imagination, and break free from societal constraints.  

Just as surrealism transforms how we perceive the world, bold, creative striped wall murals can completely transform a space. Striped wall murals play with our senses, bending our perception of depth, movement, and dimension. What may seem like a simple pattern becomes a dynamic, immersive experience, turning any wall into a statement. 

 

 

Surrealism brings a refreshing sense of optimism and escapism, which is exactly what our interiors need. What’s most captivating about surrealism is its openness. There are no rules, no boundaries, just endless possibilities. We want to encourage us to be unapologetically ourselves, embracing the strange, the whimsical, and the wonderful with our interiors. In this collection, true creativity thrives.
